Tomorrow Is a Long Time Songtext
von Nana Mouskouri

If today was not an endless highway
If tonight was not a crooked trail
If tomorrow was not such a long time
Then lonesome wouldn′t mean a thing to me at all
I can't see my reflection in the waters
Can′t speak the sounds that show no pain
I can't hear the echo of my footsteps
Can't remember the sound of my own name
Yes, and only if my true love was waiting
And if I could hear his heart softly pounding


Only if he was lying by me
Then I′d lie in my bed once again
There′s beauty in the silver, singing river
There's beauty in the sunrise in the skies
But none of these and nothing else can touch
The beauty that I remember in my true love′s eyes
Yes, and only if my true love was waiting
And if I could hear his heart softly pounding
Only if he was lying by me
Then I'd lie in my bed once again
